Mind in Gwent

Mind in Gwent We want to create a mentally healthy society. Mind in Gwent is member of the Local Mind Associations in England and Wales.

Through our information, services and campaigns, we tackle stigma, barriers and isolation so that everyone can access mental health support when they need it. Mind in Gwent is a mental health organisation formed by the merger of Newport Mind Association, Mind Monmouthshire and Torfaen and Blaenau Gwent Mind. With offices in Newport, Abergavenny, Pontypool, and Brynmawr, we use our shared experience and knowledge to help people in our diverse communities with their mental health struggles. We provide a wide range of support and services working with diverse communities across Gwent to help reach those in our communities in need of support. Our services include Wellbeing and Counselling services for adults, Children and Young People’s services (including group and one on one support in and outside of schools), Housing, Tenancy and Supported Living services, warm hubs and rural working/farmers’ support.

Good luck Dem! 👏🏻 A Cwmbran woman is taking part in her first half-marathon to raise money for a local mental health charity.

Dem Jones, 27, from Thornhill, is training for the Newport Marathon Festival in April to support Mind in Gwent

She said: “I’ve chosen to run and fundraise for a charity that is close to my heart as someone who suffers with mental health.

“I'd like to help fundraise so Mind can continue their amazing efforts to help so many people across the country. I myself haven't had to use the Mind service but know others that have, and what wonderful feedback they've given. I'm truly grateful for Mind's efforts in helping people of all ages."

To keep her motivated for her fundraising run, she’s also signed up for the Chepstow Half Marathon in January, and plans to take part in the Christmas Day Parkrun event.
